Artist statement
Flower is always beautiful from bud to withered. Intending to show off the beauty of flower, this flower vase was made. Artists are eager to draw flowers because every flower has different color and shape also condition is changing every time. Moreover, people naturally think that flower is beautiful. Then it is attractive objects for artists. Artists use a brush to draw flower on a canvas but this time, a fresh flower will turn to be a fresh picture.
Specifically, just a 0.8mm thickness steel plate cut circle shape then bend it. It becomes the background for flowers. Furthermore, a bit small circle added to the front for cover a glass bottle. At a bottom, applied a thick and heavy steel plate which thickness is 2.3mm in order to stabilize the flower vase.
“Picture” was made two times before. Finally, it is possible to sell the product to everyone. About first version, it was unstable because of the shape. And second version, it was too ideal to make so that is was impossible to make a large number of products. This third model realized first concept clearly and can use it as a daily home accessory.
